Reef's Update:The Old is New Again.

[reeffreak]

It still a work in progress.I'm trying to move away from soft corals,trimmed an sold the colts and still working on getting rid of the xenias.At this time,I'm not dosing anything and just doing 30-40 gallon water changes a month.Akalinity,pH and calcium has been consistent over the last 6-8 months.

What you can't see in the pics is a bad aiptasia outbreak.Something I need to fix before adding anymore corals.BTW,the lights is an Aquactinic T5-HO lighting system.

dom your xenia is outta control, but your frogspawn is massive now and your candy canes are looking a million percent better, if you want to get rid of your xenia so bad you could always pawn off the rock for some nice frag to someone

 

[RAYRAY]

everything looks amazing Dom !!!

 

[reeffreak]

dom your xenia is out of control

You think?
No,I can' get rid of the rocks,they are on my favorite rocks.I'm lazy,wish something would just eat them.

Your corals and tank are amazing. Love all the pics. What kind of camera did you use?

 

[reeffreak]

Piggy,it's just a plain point and shoot camera,an Olympus Stylus 8mp.

Dominick,

you are still the man, although, you should have a shark in your tank... :mrgreen:

[reeffreak]

Thanks Doc!I'm not really a fan of predator tanks(duh),just not enough diversity.

 

[Bifferwine]

I feel the same, Freak. I've never seen the appeal of predator tanks. Of course, when we go to the LFS, those are the animals that NoobDeBiff is instantly drawn to, "Can we get this? Can this go in your tank?"... He really loves rays. Someday, when I either go crazy or broke, I may sell off everything in my 240 and turn it into a ray tank for him.

 

[dustin_P74]

it because predators are awesome and that is the first place i go to in my LFS' one has a lot of sharks and the other store has a full grown zebra eel swimming around

 

[RyanG]

Sarah your nuts...find another tank and let him set it up for rays. Thats a pretty nice gesture though. Give up one love for another.

 

[RigoSharon]

freak..your the master!!..its always relaxing to see your tank..cant imagine it live!! wow!!

 

[imdaring]

what kinda lighting do you have that makes it look pink.. I love it. please let me know

 

[reeffreak]

Actually,the lighting is bluish to the eye.Corals that have brown in their tissue appears pinkish from the mix of bulbs.

The lighting is an Aquactinics Constellation-T5-HO fixture w/ 14x54w bulbs.

 

[imdaring]

I would love to have that kind of lighting her are a few pics of my tank and my hood I have X2 65wt double tube day lights, and X2 65 wt double tube actanic plus I also have 6 led lunar lights and 20 blue LED tube lights

 

[reeffreak]

I like the toady!

Yeah sorry,there aren't to many different color bulbs for PC.You do have a few options though.UV makes some good 50/50 PC bulbs.
